Equipment
Van Leeuwen Verankeringen en Funderingssystemen has an extensive range of machinery, including self-developed equipment, for the professional testing of anchors and pile systems.
All anchors are tested and tensioned in accordance with the Cur 166 procedure for sheet piling structures. If desired, piles can be tested in accordance with the Cur 236 test procedure for anchor piles.
Van Leeuwen carries out the following tests:
- Check test
- Suitability test
- Failure test.
We often use equipment that we have developed ourselves. An important advantage is that the equipment is interchangeable and that the best combination to match the situation at hand can always be selected.
